1968143609Garden City NY: Doubleday 1968. First Edition. First Edition. Copy belonging to director Joseph Losey with his name and home address written in holograph ink on the first leaf: "Joseph Losey / Hanover NH / '70." Additional underlining and bracketing throughout in the same fountain pen ink as the inscription mostly to the opening chapters of the text. <br/><br/>The McCarthy / HUAC witch hunt saw Losey hounded out of the United States in the 1950s and to his great regret he never made another film in his home country. Professionally though it was the making of him as a director: in collaboration with Harold Pinter Losey made a trilogy of legendary British films of the 1960s: "The Servant" "Accident" and "The Go-Between." Pinter and Losey also worked closely together on an adaptation of Proust's "In Search of Lost Time" but although the script was later published the film remained unmade. <br/><br/>Losey shared both a political philosophy and a cinema aesthetic with Alain Resnais and Losey's 1978 film "Roads to the South" is a sequel to Resnais' 1966 film "The War is Over." Both starred Yves Montand. <br/><br/>Very Good with light wear at the extremities and creasing to the spine from having been read. Doubleday unknown books

19596447New York: Grove Press Inc 1959. First American Edition. The most limited state of Robbe-Grillet's fourth novel first published as La Jalousie by Éditions de Minuit in 1957. Set on a banana plantation in a foreign country the novel is centered around the unnamed narrator his wife referred to only as A and their neighbors Franck and his wife. The narrator suspects A is being unfaithful with Franck but rather than culminating in a jealous outburst he primarily obsessively reviews and reports; the infidelity is never confirmed or denied. The novel was a critical success but a poor seller in France selling fewer than 1000 copies. It ultimately found literary success in the U.S. as well as a much larger audience after it was translated into English by Richard Howard who was also responsible for translating The Voyeur for Grove in 1958.
